Cancer numbers up but still on avastin

My CA125 numbers continue to climb (up 27.6 pts since 6/10 to 112.0). No longer in double digits. Crap. Cancerous node increased from 14mm x 11mm to 15mm x 12mm. Itsy bitsy growth is "not statisically significant." Dr. Im decided to continue Avastin for 3 more treatments, then order another CT scan. If numbers & node continue to grow, he will add carboplatin (chemo) to the mix. But probably not until October so I'll be wigless thru the summer months. Yeah!

Nothing much good on T.V. so have been reserving books at the library online and then reading a lot this summer. Pretty much lite fare except for Alice Roosevelt Longworth's bio which was thick hard cover and discussed more politics and less about her life than I would have liked. Work full-time and babysit grandkids one day each weekend.
